Swaziland has the highest concentration of HIV/AIDS in the world, with two-fifths of the adult population infected. The life expectancy there is 40 years, and in 2003, 17,000 deaths occurred due to AIDS. This constant devastation of the population has resulted in many households run entirely by children, and the number of orphans grows every day.
The goal of our project is to improve the educational facilities and programs within rural Swaziland. With the money that we acquire we will build a preschool for the children of the village, KaPhunga.

I am opening a green day care/preschool to teach children from the ages of 0-5 that they can have an impact on the environment. Also, the center will be eco friendly with minimal impact to the environment. The center will have a native grass that doesn't need to be watered, bamboo flooring and other recycled products. In addition, the children will be able to grow food and see how nature works with a key on fun so they enjoy being green.
My hope is to create an healthy learning environment for children with asthma/allergies or that are completely healthy.

We plan to collect school supplies from local stores and larger distributors; the supplies will then be brought to particular schools in need. We are closely working with Peter Pan co-op Nursery school in El Cerrito. We plan to assist the school by donating our time and effort by organizing, renovating, and restoring the school's facilities. Bay Area schools are notorious for their lack of resources and money.
